    G400TV TV Tuning under XP

    Hi,

    I'm having a lot of difficulty successfully tuning my Marvel on XP.

    I'm using the 5.72 drivers for the G400 to get the dual head working OK, and the 2.04 version of VideoTools as the 1.55 version says I don't have a TV tuner attached!

    On my first install I had all channels I can get under ME but with very poor quality picture; on a second install I get 2 of the channels perfectly but the rest are colourful snow. I get the same effect in AVI_IO so I guess its the video capture driver.

    My objective is just to be able to watch TV rather than record. Are there any "under the bonnet" parameters I can tune?

    Not impressed with the lack of XP support from Matrox...

    TIA, Peter

    Hi Peter,
    I have also experienced problems, but I can at least get the TV tuner working under XP. What I had to do was to run the Matrox Quick Connect program. After that I could view all channels in PC-VCR. However, I can not view them in AVI_IO which means I have problems to record.

    Hope it works for you.
    Best regards
    Jojje
